The analytical lab is situated in the Microbiology and Biochemistry building and has served the university community and the general public’s analysis needs for many years.

We try to offer a service custom-made to your needs using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), Liquid Chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS-MS), Gas Chromatography (GC), and Gas Chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS). To that end, we are open to offering a once-off analysis or forming part of your research project over long periods.

We invite you to come to talk to us about your analysis needs.
